When I swim for a hour or more, my face starts to burn about 10-15 min after I get out and keeps burning for about an half hour. It feels hot to the touch, like a moderate sunburn. The rest of my skin gets a bit red but my face down right hurts. I tried face wash which didn't help and lotion which made it worse. Anyone else have this problem? Ideas to fix it?
thanks

I would definitely look into using some lotion before and after your skin. When the chlorine meets the oxygen in air it dries out your skin. Once you're skin is dried out, it will just burn.
This used to happen to me on my triceps. Wearing a T-shirt became painful haha.
